Tim McCormick and Sam Webb reflect upon Michigan's Big Ten tournament showing with a focus shifting roles in the aftermath of Isaiah Livers' injury, how Juwan Howard getting thrown out of the Maryland game deepened his connection with the team, and who has to step up the most for the Wolverines to contend for a title. Charles Barkley then joins the podcast to share his thoughts on Michigan's season and why Juwan has been so successful out of gate. Barkley then discusses U-M's title hopes without Livers and how well Hunter Dickinson's game translates to the NBA. Barkley's appearance rounds out with reflections upon his hall of fame career, his successful transition into broadcasting, and why the age old debate about where Isiah Thomas ranks in the pantheon of great point guards is a ridiculous exercise. Tim and Sam close the podcast with a thorough breakdown of the #8-#9 matchup between St. Bonaventure and LSU, and what a matchup with each would look like for Michigan in the second round.
